Here you have two terms connected by the "subtraction" symbol.
The two coefficients are 2 and 32, and one factor common to both of these is 2. Thus, <span>2x^2-32y^2 = 2(x^2-16y^2).
You could stop here. But it'd make more sense to continue, since x^2-16y^2 is easy to factor:
The three factors of </span><span>2x^2-32y^2 are 2, x-4 and x+4</span>
Answer:
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = 0.514
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the event that the captain hits the pirate ship
The probability of the captain hitting the pirate ship, P(A) = 3/5
Let B be the event that the pirate hits the captain's ship
The probability of the pirate hitting the captain's ship P(B) = 1/7
The probability of the pirate missing the captain's ship, P'(B) = 1 - P(B)
P'(B) = 1 - 1/7 = 6/7
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = P(A) * P(B) = 3/5 * 6/7
= 0.514
Because all the coordinates of a line has the same slope. So, we can use any two of them to find the slope.
The reciprocal of 6/5 is D. 5/6
Reciprocal simply means swapping the position of the numbers in the fraction. The numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator.
We need to get reciprocal of a fraction when division is performed.
For example: 2 ÷ 1/5
2 may be a whole number but in fraction form it is 2/1.
1st fraction = 2/1
2nd fraction = 1/5
In dividing fractions, the 1st step we need to do is to get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
1/5 ⇒ 5/1
Then, we multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
2/1 * 5/1 = 10
So, 2 ÷ 1/5 = 10
2.2 = 1.4d + 3.7 - 5.4d = 3.7 - 4d
4d = 3.7 - 2.2 = 1.5
d = 1.5/4 = 0.375
